Agen▲138AI changed the way we code, but we're still using the old processes, and we've become the bottleneck, the AI is waiting for us - to reply, to open our laptops, to review the code, and so on. We're building the future of AI software development. The agents are autonomous, they run in sandboxes, automatically fix the pipelines, and deliver you the final, working code. You can use live preview to see the changes they made. Working across multiple repositories, all within the same session. This is the future - you don't need an IDE, and you don't have to run anything locally.

Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…

Hi HN, we recently built and open sourced Sweep, an AI powered junior developer. Kevin, Luke, and I were tired of handling tech debt when we knew LLMs could do this for us. Sweep solves small features, bugs, and missing documentation by writing pull requests. This allows you to review and validate the code before pushing it to your codebase. Features: - Turns issue descriptions directly into pull requests (without an IDE) - Addresses developer replies & comments - Fixes the code based on failing tests & linters from GitHub Actions Examples: https://docs.sweep.dev/examples…
